TL;DR: In this article, a flexible and economic pipeline including PMMA micromachining, surface smoothness improvement, and a universal surface modification for introduction of various functional groups is developed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a laser-induced backside wet etching (LIBWE) was used for the fabrication of microfluidic microtrenches from glass chips using computer drawing software and then automatically translated into computer numerical control motion.

TL;DR: Judging from the different temporal responses of the orientation and the migration, it is proposed that the two EF-induced responses may involve different signaling pathways.

TL;DR: A novel and simple modification of the current microarray format is described, which reduces the sample/reagent volume to 1 μl and the hybridization time to 500 s, and the enhancement of DNA hybridization reaction by the microfluidic device is investigated by determining the coefficient of variation (CV), the growth rate of the Hybridization signal and the ability to discriminate single-base mismatch.

TL;DR: The development of a collagen-coated planar interdigitated ring electrode (PIRE) array utilizing positive dielectrophoresis to pattern cells uniformly is presented, and quantification of fluorescence intensity of living cells shows an acceptable reproducibility of cell viability among PIREs.
